Clare Daly (Dublin North, United Left) | Oireachtas source

The Taoiseach has very much clarified matters for his constituents, which is probably one of the reasons Fine Gael now has diminished representation on Mayo County Council. He seems to be very well versed with the propaganda of Shell, as is his colleague sitting in front of me, Deputy Grealish. Perhaps he got this information on his visit in February when he took time out to go to Shell and meet it on site. He has not shown the same enthusiasm to meet people in the area, such as Mrs. McGrath in whose kitchen he felt comfortable enough to make a cup of tea on a previous occasion. This woman, who is 73, was manhandled by 30 gardaí outside her pub in the early hours of the morning between 1 a.m. and 5 a.m. less than ten days ago.
